You Don’t Need Your Startup

You are skilled, experienced, and educated. Anyone would hire and give you a full-blown salary that would make you happy. You would work from 9–6, come to your loved ones on time, and watch Monday Night Football. But, No!, for some reason you like taking risks. You have a fetish for the unknown.

Your startup is your baby. She needs your tenderness, love, and care. You must show her the ropes, and maybe, if you’re lucky, you’ll learn a thing or two in return.

Your startup wont make it without you. Not in the early days at least.

After some time, once your startup has grown up and is doing well on her own, you can take a brake or build a whole new startup that will grow-up to become another success story of yours.

You don’t need your startup. Your startup needs you!
